thanks Robert, you are so helpful !!
Hey mate, I have just purchased this template. Is there any chance you could add a pre filled file just to see how it all works and is to be set out ? you did it previously with another template. Thanks
This playlist is amazing! I'm learning so much! Thank you!
I’ve been trying to set up a project index but I keep getting duplicates of the same page in a list. For example, I have one ground floor plan but I see it three times in the list, can not work out what the problem is
Thank you for explaining the angles in easy way🥰
Thank you for mentioning the Tracker and orange guideline! 🙏❤❤❤
hi there Robert quick question i want to change of use of my structure from not habitable to habitable and i don't know how to fill the form what do i need to look for so the can do the work for me not sure what service can you help directing please appreciate your time do i need architect the building is up to code i just want to turn in to granny flat from gymnasium entraining area thanks again
Love to see the finished product
This is so cool. Unfortunately the German Archicad-Version doesn't have a Sash-Option. That's really frustrating to me right now.
Are you selling this template?
Yes I am. It's available in v27, v26, v25 & v24 @ robertmannarchitect.com.au/collections/resources
@@RobertMannArchitect thanks will check it out, I enjoy your tafe presentations by the way I’m a student there
@@RobertMannArchitecthi is there one available on 23?
@@manicapsanny7902 , I can provide it in v23. Please email [email protected] with a request.
What about the handrail above the winders?
can you 'explode' just one of the modules in the main model, to edit it in the model?
very helpful, thank you!
Is it possible to hide roof and see how shadows are casted inside of the house? If I hide elements that I do not want to see in the top view then light and shadows spread all around like there is no roof.
great video thanks!! how do I make the ends vertical rather than perpendicular?
Tnx, wery much!!!
Sooo helpful
My left ear loved this video. My right ear and my sanity did not
Is it possible to download the cheat sheet?
Cheers man. Do you have a quick way to calculate the volumes of the cut and fills and maybe represent them graphically too?
Very informative, thank you.
thanks mn, really explain things clearly
Firstly, thank you for all your FREE advice. Normally if I was in your shoes I would charge people to have access to your invaluable knowledge. Secondly, can you please turn up your volume on your mic? It's a bit too soft. Thanks Rob.
Is it possible to hide everything inside the exterior walls as in a manually drafted plan? All the ridge lines get confusing especially if interior ceilings are flat.\
thank youuuuu so much haha
Is there a faster way to trace? Like with magic wand tool or something?
Thank you
Hi, thanks for this video. I am designing an external staircase, and the bca says between handrail to handrail, a minimum of 1000mm is required. But standards Australia throws that out. What's your view? Regards
Robert was very clear with his lesson and I understood what he was saying.
Is there a guideline for posr CC approval and the inspection steps?
Thanks for these videos, good to see an Australian offering this information
Thanks Robert, just found your video while searching how to resolve issues while editing fills. I see you get some odd dots in your Earth fill, at in the Preview pane (eg at 00:08:15 and 00:09:00) but also when you have placed the fill in your section (eg at 00:09:50). I get these as well, but not always: if I start a new .pln and create the new symbol fill in there, it seems all is good; but if not, then I do get them, and these also end up in the exported PDF drawings. Many thanks for your video and for your time reading this, I would love to hear back from you with any observations on this odd behaviour.
Space bar 👍
Thanks for the info!
Whilst your knowledge on Architects and what it takes to become an Architect appears fractal, because this is obviously your foundation. On the other hand your knowledge on Building Designers (at least for Queensland), is extremely lacking. 2 years full time study in the Diploma. $30-40k much more if you defer your fees. 5 years in the Bachelor of Architecture. You’re best to advise but my best guess is- $100k - $140k And for what? There are also fundamental core subjects that differ. To become a Building Designer, you need to demonstrate competency in the licence class with the Queensland Building Construction Commission (QBCC). Minimum is 2 years, which I believe primarily exists for ex-Builders, ex-Carpenters and the like who may have substantial experience in the industry but they maybe transitioning off the tools and need to get their feet wet in design and contract administration. For the far majority it’s closer to 5 years minimum experience working under an Architect, Licensed Building Designer or a Builder. You need three licensee’s in the relevant class to also sign you off as competent. Licence Classes consist of Low Rise, Medium and High and they are additional restrictions on type of construction and square meterage when it comes to building classes 2-9. And you cannot specify structure but have to engage a Structural Engineer. Architects however have no restrictions but most refer to a Structural Engineer too because of the risk profile. In Queensland, only Registered Practicing Engineers of Queensland (RPEQ) Engineers can sign off on structure. There’s also the debate what Architects charge compared to a Building Designer. Suffice to say it’s significant. But it’s not a fair comparison because it typically comes down to contract administration and approach. For instance, a Building Designer for residential construction typically goes as far as Building Approval (BA) and hands the project over to the Builder. Whereas Architects are more than likely to control the entire engagement right through to interior design and handing the completed project over to the client - turn key is the catch phrase. We are not comparing apples and apples. Both are competent but the culture between the two differs. On the matter of how much detail is drawn when comparing Architects and Building Designers, I feel you lack experience in this qualifying statement. The Builder is the client in this respect and not the actual fee paying client. As a licensed Building Designer for low rise I also have to have public liability and professional indemnity, just like an Architect. And last and not least, The word “Architect” is a protected name. Only qualified Architects can adopt the precious “A” word. I can say I love architecture but I can never ever refer or inference I’m an Architect. Oh, and a drafter is not licenced. A drafter either works for an Architect, licensed Building Designer or a Builder and they don’t require insurance, because they are not licensed.
amazing video thank you very much robert very well done
Great tip! Yes.
Hi Robert...hope you are well. Hey you dont have to apply elevations to all the geometry via story levels, you simply specify eg a ground floor slab as RL 0 and type in the AHD numbers in project levels eg -48580 and it only requires a single change to the AHD ie if you need to change building elevation and every element is updated. I also means that you are dealing with human friendly relative physical levels when navigating the model and apply camera coordinate. Cheers

Awesome job Mr. Mann!
Thank you very much about the video! Will you make a video about energy evaluator in archicad ?
Never thought about doing it that way. I usually used additional fills. Great tip.
How do you make objects from existing products?
how do then straighten the lines
Hi Robert, can u get an approval on a house already built & more than 20 years old? We’d like to purchase a lovely home near Tocumwal and we don’t think it was built with either of these applications ?
This largely depends on the council. Some will allow it, if its compliant, as long as you can provide a certificate from an engineer.
is this video part of a playlist? your channel is awesome but it's hard sometimes to follow along sequentially cause the titles are all different and some projects aren't in one playlist
hi Robert do you have a tutorial on document management? how to manage revisions and organise files?
very helpful! Thanks Robert!
thx
This is great! Are you able to show how to geolocation the mesh, and also show how to get point accurate point height elevations of the mesh in plan?
